Lister Based Generators / Re: Lister TS2, insufficient oil in valve cover

Well, I took the oil lines off and blew them out. I didn't notice any blockage but it seems like it might be a little better. Still, both cylinders have one valve drier than the other and I don't feel like it is enough. The oil pressure when warmed up is 25 PSI or a little less. This is lower than it should be but not by a lot. When I changed the oil I noticed some kind of glob go by as I dumped the pan into a 5 gallon bucket. I am a little concerned about that and wonder if the screen on the oil pump intake is partially blocked. I am looking for an oil pan gasket so I can drop the pan and check the screen.
How much oil should be up on the valve train?
